BUFFY: Dig this: 'The praying mantis can rotate its head 180 degrees while waiting for its next meal to walk by.' Ha! Well, c'mon, guys. Ha!

WILLOW: Well, Miss French is sort of big. For a bug?

GILES: And she is, by and large, woman shaped.

BUFFY: Okay. Factoid 1: Only the praying mantis can rotate its head like that. Factoid 2: A pretty whacked-out vampire is scared to death of her. Factoid 3: Her fashion sense screams predator.

WILLOW: It's the shoulder pads.

BUFFY: Exactly.

GILES: If you're right, then she'd have to be a shape shifter or a perception distorter. On a helpful note, I had a chum at Oxford, Carlyle, advanced degrees in entomology mythology.

BUFFY: Entoma-who?

GILES: Bugs and fairy tales.
